PRESCRIPTION DRUG
OPDUALAG™ is indicated for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients 12 years of age or older with unresectable or metastatic melanoma. None. Risk Summary Based on findings in animals and mechanism of action, OPDUALAG can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. Administration of nivolumab to cynomolgus monkeys from the onset of organogenesis through delivery resulted in increased abortion and premature infant death (see Data ). Human IgG4 is known to cross the placenta; therefore, nivolumab and relatlimab have the potential to be transmitted from the mother to the developing fetus. The effects of OPDUALAG are likely to be greater during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy. There are no available data on OPDUALAG in pregnant women to evaluate a drug-associated risk. Advise the patient of the potential risk to a fetus. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. Data Animal Data OPDUALAG injection for intravenous use contains nivolumab and relatlimab [see Description (11)] . Nivolumab: One function of the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway is to preserve pregnancy by maintaining immune tolerance to the fetus. The effects of nivolumab on prenatal and postnatal development were evaluated in monkeys that received nivolumab twice weekly from the onset of organogenesis through delivery, at exposure levels of between 9 and 42 times higher than those observed at the clinical dose of 3 mg/kg (based on AUC). Nivolumab administration resulted in a non-dose-related increase in spontaneous abortion and increased neonatal death. In surviving infants (18 of 32 compared to 11 of 16 vehicle-exposed infants) of cynomolgus monkeys treated with nivolumab, there were no apparent malformations and no effects on neurobehavioral, immunological, or clinical pathology parameters throughout the 6-month postnatal period. Relatlimab: There are no available animal data on relatlimab. The effects of a murine surrogate anti-LAG-3 antibody was evaluated in mice using syngeneic and allogeneic breeding models. When anti-LAG-3 antibodies were administered beginning on gestation day 6, there were no maternal or developmental effects in either syngeneic or allogeneic breedings. Risk Summary There are no data on the presence of nivolumab and relatlimab in human milk, the effects on the breastfed child, or the effects on milk production. Because nivolumab and relatlimab may be excreted in human milk and because of the potential for serious adverse reactions in a breastfed child, advise patients not to breastfeed during treatment with OPDUALAG and for at least 5 months after the last dose [see Pharmacokinetics (12.3)] . OPDUALAG can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1)] . Pregnancy Testing Verify the pregnancy status of females of reproductive potential prior to initiating OPDUALAG [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1)] . Contraception Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment and for at least 5 months following the last dose of OPDUALAG [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)] . The safety and effectiveness of OPDUALAG for the treatment of unresectable or metastatic melanoma have been established in pediatric patients 12 years of age or older who weigh at least 40 kg. Use of OPDUALAG for this indication is supported by evidence from an adequate and well-controlled study in adults and additional data analyses that suggest that nivolumab and relatlimab exposures in pediatric patients 12 years of age who weigh at least 40 kg are expected to result in similar safety and efficacy to that of adults. The pharmacokinetics of monoclonal antibodies and the course of unresectable or metastatic melanoma are sufficiently similar in adults and pediatric patients 12 years of age or older to allow extrapolation of data from adult patients to pediatric patients 12 years of age or older (who weigh at least 40 kg). A recommended dosage for pediatric patients 12 years of age or older who weigh less than 40 kg has not been established [see Adverse Reactions (6.1), Clinical Pharmacology (12.3), and Clinical Studies (14)] . The safety and effectiveness of OPDUALAG have not been established in pediatric patients 12 years of age or older who weigh less than 40 kg, and pediatric patients younger than 12 years of age. Of the 355 patients treated with OPDUALAG in RELATIVITY-047, 47% of patients were 65 years or older, 29% were 65 to 74 years, 17% were 75 to 84 years, and 1.7% were 85 years and older. No overall differences in safety or effectiveness were observed between elderly patients and younger patients.
OPDUALAG (nivolumab and relatlimab-rmbw) injection is a sterile, preservative-free, clear to opalescent, colorless to slightly yellow solution for intravenous use supplied in a single-dose vial containing 240 mg of nivolumab and 80 mg of relatlimab per 20 mL (12 mg and 4 mg per mL) per carton (NDC 0003-7125-11). Store OPDUALAG refrigerated at 2°C to 8°C (36°F to 46°F) in the original carton to protect from light until time of use. Do not freeze or shake.

Squibb & Sons, L.L.C. ---------- MEDICATION GUIDE MEDICATION GUIDE OPDUALAG™ (op-DEW-uh-lag) (nivolumab and relatlimab-rmbw) injection What is the most important information I should know about OPDUALAG? OPDUALAG is a medicine that may treat a type of skin cancer called melanoma by working with your immune system. OPDUALAG can cause your immune system to attack normal organs and tissues in any area of your body and can affect the way they work. These problems can sometimes become severe or can lead to death. These problems may happen anytime during treatment or even after your treatment has ended. You may have more than one of these problems at the same time.
